European Institute for Comparative Cultural Research

The European Institute for Comparative Cultural Research (ERICarts Institute) is an independent organisation which carries out comparative cultural research and cultural policy monitoring in co-operation with experts from over 40 European countries.

The Institute was founded by the European Association of Cultural Researchers (ECURES) in collaboration with "Centres of Excellence" specialising in cultural research from different corners of Europe. Their representatives sit on a Board of Governors and make key decisions regarding the research programme and strategic direction of the Institute. The day to day management of the projects and research teams is carried out by the central office located in Bonn, Germany.
